Sunrisers Hyderabad head coach Trevor Bayliss conceded that his players were lacking confidence after his side lost to Punjab Kings by five runs in a in a low-scoring match here. Thanks to Mohammed Shami (2/14) and Ravi Bishnoi's (3/24) tight bowling Punjab are now at fifth place on the points table.
With 126 successfully defended by Punjab, it is also the lowest score successfully defended in an IPL match in Sharjah.Having restricted Punjab Kings for 125/7, SRH were hoping to chase the small total successfully. But they had a horror start as David Warner (2) nicked behind to keeper KL Rahul on third ball of the innings. Shami had his second wicket of the match when Kane Williamson (1) chopped on to his leg-stump while going for the drive.
